🔗 Share this article AC Shadows Unveils Unexpected Attack on Titan Event for Thanksgiving In a unexpected collaboration that challenges traditional forecasts, the game developer has announced an in-game collaboration between Assassin's Creed Shadows and the renowned anime series Attack on Titan. The unexpected holiday event operates from November 25 through December 22, providing no-cost extra story content for Shadows players. Strange Adventure Disclosed According to the authorized announcement, "An unusual encounter draws heroes Naoe and Yasuke into a fresh adventure, where hints of prohibited practices and fearsome transformations resonate through the darkness." The narrative features a "oddly dressed woman named Ada" who tasks the characters with traveling into the Gemstone Grotto—a important location from Attack on Titan—to save her friend from a clandestine cult. The mission concentrates on "peculiar tests and a monstrous enemy" and is open to all players who have unlocked the Yasuke character. Recognizable Settings and Transformations The preview showcases the Underground Chapel from Attack on Titan recreated as the Crystal Cave. This historic location was formerly where the Reiss royal family handed down the Founding Titan ability through ages. The teaser ends with a dramatic moment showing a character, presumably the prisoner, morphing into a Titan that rises over Naoe and Yasuke. Special Prizes and Extra Content Players who finish the adventure will obtain an unique katana alongside multiple items concealed throughout the area in secret chests. The update also features in-store Attack on Titan item packs, including: Titan-inspired attire for Yasuke Mikasa outfit for Naoe Exclusive weapons Survey Corps steed Newest Free Story Addition This release also adds the game's newest complimentary story content, titled "A Puzzlement." This lighthearted adventure teams Naoe and Yasuke as they exchange characteristic abilities: Naoe debuts a performative version of Yasuke's war kick, while Yasuke masters non-lethal stealth takedowns. Faithful to its name, "The Mystery" also contains a fresh environmental puzzle that may ultimately clarify some unanswered questions from the main storyline. Earlier Japanese Animation Collaborations This represents not the primary time the Assassin's Creed franchise has crossed over with popular anime series. The series formerly showcased a 2020 crossover story connecting Assassin's Creed: Valhalla with Makoto Yukimura's Vinland Saga. Additionally, Valhalla unofficially included a quest that clearly echoed the well-known series One-Punch Man.
